Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1118: Chapter 178: No Friendship Without Fighting

Ye Lingyue avoided quickly, but the person pursued even faster.

The newcomer anticipated that Ye Lingyue had discovered the secret within the rock garden and wouldn’t let Ye Lingyue escape easily.

One chased while the other fled, and before long, Ye Lingyue had escaped the courtyard and instinctively headed toward her own residence.

What a joke, if her Primordial Spirit was damaged, she would be finished. For now, she could only return to her physical body as quickly as possible, brace herself and fight.

Once she entered her residence, her Primordial Spirit immediately merged with her physical body.

”Who’s in the room? Get out!”

Outside the door, a thunderous roar of rage.

The originally simple door was kicked open.

On the bed, Ye Lingyue, who had just integrated her Primordial Spirit with her body, suddenly opened her eyes.

She indeed wanted to see who had been relentlessly pursuing her just now!

Four eyes clashed like a storm.

When they saw each other’s appearance, both of them simultaneously exclaimed.

”Why is it you!”

Ye Lingyue’s expression was complicated, and the visitor was also full of confusion.

The night traveler who had intruded into the City Lord’s Mansion wasn’t anyone else; it was the ”stingy” female warrior Ye Lingyue had encountered at the novice reporting area earlier.

”What happened?”

Si Xiaochun, who had been awakened by the noise, came over upon hearing the commotion.

”How is she here?”

Ye Lingyue and the female warrior simultaneously pointed at each other in question.

”City Lord, Ling Yue, what’s going on? You two shouldn’t have met before. City Lord, you’ve returned, but why are you in Ling Yue’s room in the middle of the night?”

Si Xiaochun was caught between two women, looking baffled.

”She’s the Huangquan City Lord?”

”She’s the gardener?”

The female warrior was indeed the Huangquan City Lord, and the people in the rock garden were imprisoned by her, along with those Heavenly Sword Hemp... In Ye Lingyue’s mind, all the mysteries piled up over the past half month were unraveled.

Besides the Huangquan City Lord, who else would dare create such an elaborate deception within the City Lord’s Mansion, turning living people into Wild Beasts, binding their scapula with Demon-binding Rope—a cruel method of imprisonment.

”So, it was you who cleaned out the Heavenly Sword Hemp. Quite a clever newbie; this City Lord indeed underestimated you earlier. You’ve seen what you shouldn’t have seen. I’ll give you two choices: one is death, the other is to have your tongue removed and eyes gouged out.”

The Huangquan City Lord shed her earlier lazy demeanor from the novice reporting area.

Her gaze at Ye Lingyue emanated a chilling aura.

The secret of the rock garden, hidden for so many years, even Si Xiaochun, whom she always regarded as a confidant, didn’t know about it. Unexpectedly, it was seen through by a girl who had only been in the mansion for half a month.

In Ye Lingyue’s ink-like eyes, a sharp light flashed.

How venomous the Huangquan City Lord was, intending to silence and blind her.

Si Xiaochun was also startled, not understanding why the City Lord would be so enraged as to demand Ye Lingyue’s eyes and tongue.

”City Lord, what exactly happened? Ling Yue hasn’t been in the mansion long, doesn’t understand the rules. If she’s done something wrong, I’m willing to take the blame for her.”

”A cunning little girl, unnoticed for her appearance yet sly in thought, who’s even managed to deceive you, Xiaochun. Speak, who are you really? Who sent you to infiltrate Huangquan City?”

Seeing Xiaochun enchanted by this girl, the Huangquan City Lord was furious.

”Xiaochun, don’t be blinded by her. She doesn’t deserve to be your master. Do you know, the spiritual patterns on those Heavenly Sword Hemp were tampered with by her. She even imprisoned someone in the rock garden.” Ye Lingyue wasn’t fazed and revealed all she’d seen and heard that night.

”You’re courting death.”

The Huangquan City Lord’s face turned blue, and suddenly she turned her hand into a palm, conjuring a surge of Primordial Power, her palm struck towards Ye Lingyue.

”Ling Yue, watch out.”

Si Xiaochun was alarmed, wanting to intervene, but it was too late.

Ye Lingyue, upon seeing this, raised her finger and caught at the Huangquan City Lord.

At her fingertip, a dark Cauldron Breath mixed with the power of the sixth needle of the Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles, fending off the palm, collided with the Huangquan City Lord’s Primordial Power.

There was a boom.

When the Power of Heaven and Earth touched the Power of Reincarnation.

The small house where Ye Lingyue sheltered seemed to have experienced a sudden storm.

The bed shattered, the house exploded.

”Power of Heaven and Earth? I ask you, what is Zitang Su to you?”

The Huangquan City Lord’s power was several times stronger than Ye Lingyue, yet for some reason, after facing her for a mere moment, her figure paused, suddenly withdrew power, and floated back gracefully.

”You know Master Zi?”

Ye Lingyue’s Power of Heaven and Earth, since acquired, was rarely discerned by others.

To date, the only ones to recognize her Power of Heaven and Earth at a glance were Zitang Su and this righteous yet malevolent Huangquan City Lord.

”Are you really Zitang Su’s disciple?”

From the moment Ye Lingyue used the Power of Heaven and Earth, the Huangquan City Lord had already determined her connection to Zitang Su. After all, throughout the Ancient Nine Provinces, those who understood such profound Power of Heaven and Earth were few.

Furthermore, Ye Lingyue happened to come from Qing Province Continent, which according to her knowledge, was where Zitang Su, known in the earthly world as the Lord of Lonely Moon Sea.

”What is truly happening here? City Lord, Ling Yue, this must be a misunderstanding.” Si Xiaochun saw the two cease their exchange, breathed a sigh of relief, and to prevent them from clashing again, he intervened.

”Forget it, considering you’re Zitang Su’s disciple, I’ll overlook tonight’s incident. But remember, if you reveal even a hint about the rock garden, I’ll hold you accountable. There’s no need for you to work at the City Lord’s Mansion anymore. Xiaochun, give her a month’s salary and have her leave.”

It was apparent that the Huangquan City Lord had a past association with Zitang Su, but ultimately, she didn’t act further against Ye Lingyue.

”City Lord... Ah, Ling Yue, come with me.”

Si Xiaochun knew the City Lord’s temperament well, so with a sigh, he could only lead Ye Lingyue away.

But just then, a strange noise sounded from the direction of the garden.

Huangquan Changzhu’s face changed significantly upon hearing the noise.

She disregarded Ye Lingyue and Si Xiaochun and rushed toward the garden.

”City Lord!” Si Xiaochun realized the City Lord was behaving quite strangely tonight.

Also, what Ye Lingyue just mentioned about the prisoner in the rock garden, he knew nothing of it.

”What are you standing there for, hurry over and take a look.”

Ye Lingyue also knew the sound must be related to the prisoner in the rock garden.

Without another word, she hurried towards the garden, not caring about Si Xiaochun.

As Ye Lingyue and Si Xiaochun arrived at the garden entrance, they saw two shadows entwined in a fight.

One of them was none other than the prisoner from the rock garden!

He took the chance while Ye Lingyue and the Huangquan City Lord were fighting to escape.
